I do, and too much. :p: I'll take some photos later, as my last ones are a few years out of date.
Excuse the state of my room, I've been fighting a losing battle against rain and dust and lack of space for years. :colondollar:

How much do you think your collection is worth?


I wouldn't know where to begin. :o: I know a few single volumes have skyrocketed since I bought them (e.g. Twin Spica v.11, 7 Billion Needles v.3, Flower of Life v.4), but a few others would be unsellable due to water damage. :frown:

£150 from just 3 books!! That's great! Oh, may I ask where you buy your figures?


Mostly from Telford MCM and Minamicon, though I recently started ordering from ebay as well. I'm told there's plenty of fakes floating around on there, but thankfully most of the characters/series I'm interested in aren't big enough to warrant the bootleggers' attentions. :p:

Ah, thank you and hopefully neither of us will get scammed.


For some reason I can never trust eBay I buy all my manga on Amazon idk if it's more expensive.🤔

Manga on ebay is pretty reliable, as long as you make sure its in the right language. :p: Sometimes they're cheaper than Amazon on new books, but often they're about the same.

The Book Depository is also very good and sometimes cheaper - worth checking out both their price in Amazon's marketplace (they're almost always there for anything still in print), and the price on their own site, as one can often be cheaper than the other. :yes:
Have just one manga (Magic Kaito) and just a few DVD to certain animes (Noir, Hellsing OVA, Hellsing the series and Samurai 7). As a anime fan, its a shame, even a big one! shame on me!

I don't have much, but here's my collection: https://i.gyazo.com/34f9e5b57a69df1cfc4659264235e829.jpg

I do also have some manga: 10-15 Naruto volumes, two Attack on Titan and one UQ Holder. I am looking to get rid of those though as I don't want to collect manga now! Already sold about 15 Naruto volumes (at a huge loss, I might add).
I've got 650~ manga volumes. Other than that I have a bunch of Love Live! merchandise. (6 nendoroids, 2 jumbo nesoberi plushes, 2 tapestries, 2 CDs, 1 t shirt, 1 art book & 1 expensive figure ordered that should arrive in a few months)

650 mangas? respect, that is a lot. I can't imagine that our appreciated anime and manga fan, AngryJellyfish, has even more. I have my doubts at least.

Not that it's a competition, but a quick count estimates my collection at ~750 (again, I'm not sure on the exact numbers in that huge 3x3 pile) - that's not counting light novels, digital manga (259 volumes bought via Amazon, BookWalker and eManga), and counting all omnibuses as single volumes.

You are a true boaster AngryJellyfish. But quite rightly in my opinion. Don't know a person who has such a great collection, I will give you that. Do you have enough time to read them anyway?

Everything on the shelves has been read once, over the course of the last 11 years. Very few have been read twice. :p: I've been a bit slower reading the digital stuff, probably have ~15 volumes unread, but it doesn't make me feel as guilty as a similarly sized pile of paperbacks would. :giggle:
